How he mechanisms play ou depends on land-use planning and policy. To a la ge ex en , land-use de elopmen is s ee ed by
public au ho i ies, in No way as in mos Eu opean coun ies, al hough he ma ke decides wha is buil and when wi hin he lim-

use effec s o oad capaci y expansions will hence be influenced by public land-use planning and policies. I planning au ho i ies limi

3. Resea ch design, me hodology and da a
